VerifiedHello! My name is***** you for your question. I'm reviewing it now, and will post back again shortly.
I can answer one question on this post.
Then, you can start a new post for your next question. If you put my name into that question then I will be the one to answer and will do so at once. My name is ***** *****
Should I answer the first question here?
This debt is not a mutual debt in the sense that it will not be shared. Because you brought this debt into the marriage you would not be able to argue that your spouse should be responsible for it.
Does that make sense?
Please feel free to post back with any follow-up questions you may have. If you don't have any then I hope I have earned a 5 star rating but if you don't feel that I have please don't hesitate to reply back and let me know what more I can do to assist you. Finally, please know that even after you rate me I will be here for you and you can ask follow-up questions if you think of them later on at no further charge of course.
